A FRIEND IS FOR LIFE

By Josie Whitehead

Friend is For Life (A)

When your lifetime lies ahead
     And you have lots to do,
Remember that your world includes
     Some others - not just you.

​

Each day your life is filled with folk 
     Who share this world with you,
And how they think and what they do
     Affects both me and you.

​

Remember it’s how each of us
    Treat others that we meet,
So show a kindly face to those
     At school and in the street - 

​

And don't forget the ones at home -
    They've lots of love for you;
Your brothers, sisters, Mum and Dad
     And Grans and Granddads too.

​

Remember that we hope that they
    Show us affection too,

And love and friendship goes through life;
     It should do, that is true.
